Some of the debugging in the OpenSRS stuff is tedious and frustrating. I get help from their support occasionally, but I remembered something that helped me a while ago. When I first started working I used to bring toys into the office and play with them. All the 35 year old Software Engineers looked at me funny but they helped me solve complex problems pretty quickly. I was able to get my mind on something else that was complex. I used Juggling Sticks, LEGO, puzzles, whatever. I also tried to surround myself with nice things like flowers. Today I bought some flowers and they have made me happy. Tomorrow I need to remember some toys. Right now I'm in the middle of a complex problem and they would help. Perhaps this journal helps in some... THAT'S IT!
